Cricket: T20 World Cup

[ScarfaceClaw]

Anyone else feel that NZ will be 30 for 5 after 10?

Absolutely no chance. After four overs is more like it.

Black Caps have this one in the cap. Goodbye India. Nice to see that crowd in silence

[FalseBayFC]

Nice lass in the crowd there.

Bumrah getting some hoop on the ball. Let’s not get carried away.

[ScarfaceClaw]

WTF is Mitchell playing at. First ball charges down the wicket and does just enough not to end up stumped and now leaps outside off trying to hit the ball back to NZ.

[ScarfaceClaw]

And Guppy does a Guppy.

[Sandstorm]

Nice lass in the crowd there.

There’s babes at every ground, every day.

[ScarfaceClaw]

Mitchell is giving me the heebee jeebies.

[ScarfaceClaw]

The crowd not giving that announcer much love.

I have a mate who is a film maker and photographer in Dubai. He's been making good bank doing shoots of influencers. He reckons the Russian chicks look like they've been bred in tanks and designed by genetic engineers. They pay cash in USD. USD 5-10k for a good day for him.

I explain that to my laaitie.

Mitchell look the goods

[OomStruisbaai]

Easy now for the Black Caps. Hard work has been done

[ScarfaceClaw]

That’s beautiful from Williamson. Such a delicate late cut.

[Torquemada 1420]

Kohli going through the motions. Has to cut off all the singles now.

[FalseBayFC]

Nothing better than a bitter Indian commentator when his team are getting pumped!!

Planning to burn down entire suburbs where the offending selector or cricketer lives. Threatening to rape their bastard bitch sisters and mothers.

Calm down, Oom

I'm almost quoting verbatim from one of their supporter forums. It's literally the language they use.

[ScarfaceClaw]

Crowd is nearly silent. Indian players body language is in bits. Kohli getting his sulk on.

Mitchell closing in on 50.
Somewhere there's a proud father.

[OomStruisbaai]

How many bonus points?

[FalseBayFC]

Crowd is nearly silent. Indian players body language is in bits. Kohli getting his sulk on.

Kohli was a massive prick for a good few years. Since his relative decline in form he's moderated a bit. I think we expect arrogant aggressive cricketers from say the Aussies and Saffers. The Indians have always been either implacable types like Laxman or Dravid or cheeky grinners. Like I said earlier, I think Harbajhan turned that around a bit. He got under the Aussies skin and I think learned a lot from the Waugh/Hayden/McGrath mentality. Kohli's not much worse than Ponting or Waugh or Pup. They were all bolshy types too.

Yours, I believe.

[Thor Sedan]

Could've let him get his 50.....dick.

[Torquemada 1420]

Totally unnecessary shot.

[ScarfaceClaw]

Ejit. Didn’t need to do that.

[Thor Sedan]

So should NZ be thinking about net run rate?

[Torquemada 1420]

So should NZ be thinking about net run rate?

Why? You are never closing the Afghan's rate down so it's simply a matter of beating them to ensure qualification?

[FalseBayFC]

Conway is a St Johns boy from Joburg. Must come from a well off family, its one of those Anglican schools with a hefty price tag.

[Torquemada 1420]

Bye bye India

[convoluted]

Once Were Minnows.

[ScarfaceClaw]

Whoop whoop whoop!!!!

[FalseBayFC]

Nice one NZ Black Caps. Will support them if and until the Proteas face them.

Or we screw it up against the Afghans.

Great play Kiwis. Love it!!

Didn’t realise he was John Mitchell’s son. And Eddie sounds like a total prick.

You should read the full article. The Mitchell thing is small fry in comparison!

[Ymx]

Jesus, what an utter prick.

[Enzedder]

Poms cant say that they weren't warned. Before long, they won't be able to recruit staff while he's there.

Class is permanent, so is arse.

[OomStruisbaai]

Poms need Rassie to rescue then.

I’d say they’ve been hiring people in HR, & Legal big time since Eddie rolled into town

You also warned us he'd only be good for two years, and, well, that didn't pan out. At this point I think I'm right in saying he's been England coach longer than any of his previous gigs, so I don't think there's much advice you lot can give us (not that it was anything new to begin with)
